Since a tumultuous last 2 weeks, the COVID crisis in the Browns camp is finally over. After nearly losing over 20 players on the reserve/COVID 19 list including stars Baker Mayfield and Keenum, there is finally some good news. Last night, the Cleveland-based team activated Baker Mayfield and Case Keenum from the reserve/COVID-19 list. The Browns also activated receiver Jarvis Landry, cornerback A.J. Green, and defensive end Ifeadi Odenigbo from the list.

The absence of star players Mayfield and Keenum really affected the Cleveland offense against the Raiders last week. While backup Nick Mullens performed admirably, the Browns still fell short as their inability to hang onto a late lead saw them succumb to a 16-14 loss.
